Interesting thread, I must say.
I'm a hackintosh user for a while now, not really a fanboy of Apple. But I am full Apple, as I have iPhone, iPad, Hackintosh, Macbook (from 2008!).
I was expecting something interesting with the last keynote. Like, maybe a MBA that is not overpriced, or a Mini that is not overpriced, or a Mac Pro that is not, yes you got it, overpriced.
But I was damn wrong ! The new MBA is nice and shinny but wow the price. Forget about that. So is the Mini.
So, I will continue with this kind of setup :
- Desktop : hackintosh, always and forever. That's unbeatable for me. I have always bought computers that I built myself. I will continue like that. The other day, I needed more ram. I just ran into a shop, bought 8GB and voila. Same with hard drives.
- Laptop : I don't really need one. So I'll keep the old one one.
Anyway, for what I do with my computer, I don't even need a desktop. I go on the internet, I manage some photos and documents and voilà. I use to have a Plex, but I don't use it anymore. Well, writing this help me to summarize. Maybe I should buy a used Macbook not too old and use it as my main computer, turn my desktop into a hypervisor and run some VM.
We'll see.
